First off, that neon yellow coating isn't just for show - it's like a 'STAY AWAY' sign for thieves. I catch neighbors doing double-takes at my parked car.

The adjustable hooks surprised me with how smoothly they clamp onto my SUV's chunky steering wheel. No wrestling match at 7AM like with my old lock.

Keep it under the passenger seat? Genius. I used to bang my shins on my old clunky lock rolling around the footwell.

Heftier than I expected when it arrived, but that solid weight makes me feel like I'm locking up with a medieval weapon (bonus: could probably dent a zombie skull in emergencies).

Pro tip from real use: The yellow shows dirt fast. A quick wipe-down while pumping gas keeps it looking intimidatingly new.
